1934 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final

The 1934 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final was the 47th All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1934 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland.

Route to the final
Dublin easily defeated Kerry in the All-Ireland semi-final, held in 1934 in Tralee.

Summary
A crowd of 36,143 attended the match. Galway had a two-point win over Dublin, with goals by the Kerry-born Michael Ferriter (2) and Martin Kelly.

The winning Galway team was the first to wear the now famous maroon and white colours of the county.

Bobby Beggs played for the losing Dublin team that day; he would line out for the winning Galway team in 1938.

This was Galway's second All-Ireland football title (the first was in 1925) and the first time the Sam Maguire Cup went west since it was first presented to the winning team in 1928.

Post-match
The winning team went to New York to play some games for the Americans there.
